As death his estate is divided
into four equal par S, each surviy-
ing child receiving one part and
the fourth part going to the three chill
dren OF the deceased son or daughter.
BY the civil law degrees of kindred are
reckoned from the descendant back to
the common ancestor and thence down
to tne other ancestor, each generation
being a degree. Thus, cousins would be
related in the fourth degree, and broth
ers IL the second. By the common law.
the common ancestor is made the
starting point in counting, and the one
of the descendants that is most remote
gives she number of the degree. The
first is the method employed in Utah.

Harper gave a bond in the sum of Sl5,.

1t is now common talk that the liabili,
ties of the bank will reach 5000, 600,
while the assets dwindle in proportion. II
seems a foregone conclusion hat the de.
positors will get next to nothing. A mem.
orandum shows hat Wiltshire used ST.,

belief of some that Wiltshire acted as the
agent of Harper in conducting the wheat
deal, and was not really a borrower.

Horrible Death from Hydrophsbia,

New York Special: Matthew Gurnee, a
wealthy brick manufacturer OF Haver,
straw, died on the 23d after a week ofgreat
suffering from hydrophobia, the result of a
bite from a favorite terrier some weeks
ago. Mr.. Guruee was "a great fancier oil
dogs. A particular pet was a small
Scotch terrier. A month ago this ami.
mai was bitten by a dog which
was afterwards discovered to
have gone mad. The terrier ran home to
bis master, rushed into the house as il in
great pain, and placed his head upon Mr..
Gurnee's knee. Mr.. Gurnee showed his
hand into the dogs mouth to relieve him,
as he seemed to be choking. The dogdrove
his teeth into Mr.. Gurnee's right hand, and
the hood flowed freely ron the wound.
The animal then fell over and soon died
Mr.. Gurnee's grief at the loss OF his pet
led him to be careless OF himself. A
physician was not called for several
days, n when one was called
the hand was infiamed to an alarming ex.
tent. Three days ago the patient was sud.
denly seized with violent spasms, and
these increased on Tuesday so that it re.
quired o II men to hold Mr.. Gnrnee in the
bed. Thecondition of the patient aroused
the alarm OF his physician, and yesterday
DIR. William A. Hammond OF this city was
summoned and found the case hopeless,

was a genuine case Of hydrophob.a. There
are few instances in which | an prepared
